Team News: Mario Mandzukic named on Atletico Madrid bench

Mario Mandzukic is forced to settle for a place on the bench as Atletico Madrid take on Valencia at the Vicente Calderon.

Mario Mandzukic has once again been named on the Atletico Madrid bench for the La Liga clash with Valencia at the Vicente Calderon.

The Croatian forward continues his stint out of the starting lineup, but Fernando Torres returns to lead the attack for the champions.

Antoine Griezmann misses out for Atletico, but there are starts for Raul Garcia, Arda Turan and the returning Koke, while Jose Gimenez partners Diego Godin in the centre of defence.

Paco Alcacer is still missing for Valencia, so Nuno Espirito Santo has named an unchanged side following last weekend's victory over Real Sociedad as Alvaro Negredo once again leads the line with support from Dani Parejo.

Atletici: Moya, Juanfran, Godín, Gimenez, Siqueira, Gabi, Tiago, Koke, Raul Garcia, Arda Turan, Torres

Valencia: Alves, Barragan, Mustafi, Otamendi, Gaya, Fuego, E. Perez, Parejo, Feghouli, Piatti, Negredo
